The iconic trading card game Magic: The Gathering is teaming up with Doctor Who to take a trip into time and space. Here's everything you need to know.
Are you a Doctor Who fan? Do you regularly play Magic: The Gathering? Then do we have news for you. Magic: The Gathering have decided to take advantage of the fact that the Venn diagram of Doctor Who fans and card game enthusiasts is basically a circle and are releasing a special Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who Commander Deck.
For anyone who’s unfamiliar with the game, Magic: The Gathering is a collectible trading card game where players can undertake different strategic games to defeat their opponents.
In the past, Magic: The Gathering have collaborated with many other sci-fi and fantasy darlings; Lord of the Rings and Warhammer 40,000, to name a couple. Doctor Who is their latest project and we simply can’t wait to travel across time and space.
One of the key elements of Magic The Gathering is building the ultimate deck from ranges of thousands of cards. In the spirit of this, Magic: The Gathering Doctor Who Deck is available in not one, not two, but four separate packs. These are:
- Timey-Wimey: If New Who is your cup of tea, then get ready to enjoy some fish fingers and custard with the ninth, tenth and eleventh doctors and their companions.
- Masters of Evil: Nice guys finish last, so why not join the dark side? Whether you dream of being upgraded to Cyberman status or you want to become the Master themselves, you too can rise and conquer your greatest enemy: the Doctor.
- Blast From The Past: Hop in the TARDIS and travel back in time, where you can play as one of the first eight doctors.
- Paradox Power: If you’re a Capaldi and Whittaker super fan, then this is the deck for you. Join the twelfth and thirteenth Doctors and their companions on their quests.
Each 100-card deck contains 50 new cards complete with Doctor Who-themed art and mechanics. You won’t believe all the things they can fit inside - I guess it really is bigger on the inside…
There's also the opportunity to buy a collector booster set of 15 cards, including rare and special alt-frame cards.
